92' project
 
Hey i'm new to cars so i might need a little help. I picked up a really old 1992 civic hatchback and I'm interested in making it look better than all those 2009 cars out there. But i dont know where to start. So if anyone can give me an idea then please help a brother out. I also have a big rust problem on the vechicle as you can see on my dp. Any opinions will help out.

** I will also gladly accept any donations or low offers for parts like bodykits (side skirt, bumber, lip), exhaust, rims, etc. **

- 92' PROJECT :)

start with the body.

Get the body work done first, and then start doing other things to the car,

Hatorade 05-Apr-2009 09:39 PM

where did you find one from???


its been a total bitch trying to find a clean EG in the city!!!!

Midori 05-Apr-2009 09:48 PM

From the sounds of it I wouldn't call it clean.

SiRMARKB20 06-Apr-2009 12:20 AM

Figure out the look you want and get the body done for sure

where will i be able to get kits and mechanics to install in toronto? looking for cheap but good quality parts. and is there a site that lists and shows all the different types of bodys? i also need to find the best way to fix rust problems.

By the looks of your dp I would say you would have to get the rust cut out and new pieces welded on. Search forums for body shops. What kind of body kit do you want? Just lips or full out dumpers that look like fast and furious cars?
If just lips check out OptionJDM: Performance Parts & Accessories body shops can install/paint the lips too.

Here's a little info about body repair from another thread.

Lol from the looks of it, it does not seem like minor rust. Looks like a piece is missing.

yeah rust is the biggest problem for me right now.

the easiest to use is Gmail's photo service.

if you already have a gmail account, login with your email, then upload, then copy and paste the links....viola!!
